Art Instructor / Bottle & Bottega

Bottle & Bottega, a BYOB art party studio in Lakeview and South Loop, seeks artists to instruct/host 2–3 hour art parties. Job requires the artist to replicate a piece from the Bottle & Bottega artwork collection on a blank canvas, or DIY style art form, as guests follow along. Ability to demonstrate artistic instruction to guests of all skill levels, especially beginners, a MUST.

Must have WEEKEND availability and ability to travel to OFFSITE or in-studio events. Looking for instructors well versed in FIGURE MODEL painting.

Prerequisites include ability to maintain a lively and comfortable atmosphere, while engaging guests in conversation, and demonstrating step-by-step painting techniques. Ideal candidate will have a wide range of artistic abilities (not just painting) and a background in teaching and/or presentation.

Retail/service industry experience is a plus. Customer focused instruction is required. Vehicle preferred but not mandatory.

Please specify in your cover letter if you are open to working both Lakeview and South Loop, or have a preference for one or the other. Availability to work at our South Loop location is a plus, as we currently have a greater need for artists at that studio.

This position is independently contracted, and artists are typically scheduled two shifts per week, according to the amount of availability provided.

At Bottle and Bottega, we encourage diversity and creativity in our workplace, and are proud to be an equal opportunity employer.
